A very weird day...

Too late to say much but...

In the course of 9 hours (1-10pm), I sat down with a three-star general and a Minister from the Government of Iraq, then laid the ground work for a solution to a $2M problem. I may not have another day like this in the next year but it was one to remember.

Gonna have a foofoo coffee tomorrow... off schedule!! I am a wild and crazy guy.

What was the nationality of the three star? We are really enjoying your posts.

Dad -

He was one of ours... Two State bubbas, the 3-button, the Minister and lil' ol me at the table. One other O6 (the O8's Exec) taking notes.

I'll keep posting 'em if someone is reading them.

What do you mean "If someone is reading them?" I check them every day. Not happy, you missed a day!

I'm reading for now. But, one more post about Splenda laced lattes and I'm outta here. I do, however, think I see a typo. You said that you solved a "$2M" problem. My understanding is that the Department of Defense does not have "$2M" problems; problems for the DOD start at "$200B" and go up from there.
